This notion is unfounded, however: the university hospitals in our region employ 15 percent fewer doctors, have a 20 percent lower success rate in treating patients, make far less overall profit, and pay their medical staff considerably less than do private hospitals. Furthermore, many doctors at university hospitals typically divide their time among teaching, conducting research, and treating patients. From this it seems clear that the quality of care at university hospitals is lower than that at other kinds of hospitals.” 有一種普遍的錯(cuò)誤觀念認(rèn)為大學(xué)醫(yī)院比社區(qū)或私人醫(yī)院更好。這個(gè)想法是無(wú)根據(jù)的，我們地區(qū)的大學(xué)醫(yī)院較之私人醫(yī)院，少雇15%的醫(yī)生，對(duì)患者的治愈率要低20%，總體利潤(rùn)要小得多，給一戶員工的待遇比私人醫(yī)院低很多。而且，很多大學(xué)醫(yī)院的醫(yī)生將他們的時(shí)間分為教學(xué)，直到研究和看病幾部分。從此可明顯看出大學(xué)醫(yī)院的服務(wù)質(zhì)量比其他醫(yī)院低。 思路： * 從一個(gè)醫(yī)院的情況就推廣到整個(gè)太草率 * 治愈率低可能是因?yàn)榻邮艿幕颊叩玫牟《急容^罕見(jiàn)等原因造成的 * 工資低，總體利潤(rùn)低，時(shí)間分配給教學(xué)都不能一定說(shuō)明質(zhì)量差。可能其他福利好，接受的病人少，教學(xué)研究有助于進(jìn)步 范文： In this argument the author concludes that university hospitals provide no better care than private or community hospitals. The author bases this conclusion on the following claims about university hospitals: the ones in this region employ 15 percent fewer doctors; they have a 20 percent lower success rate in treating patients; they pay their staffs less money; they make less profit than community hospitals; and they utilize doctors who divide their time between teaching, research and treating patients. This argument is unconvincing for several reasons. The most egregious reasoning error in the argument is the author’s use of evidence pertaining to university hospitals in this region as the basis for a generalization about all university hospitals. The underlying assumption operative in this inference is that university hospitals in this region are representative of all university hospitals. No evidence is offered to support this gratuitous assumption. Secondly, the only relevant reason offered in support of the claim that the quality of care is lower in university hospitals than it is at other hospitals is the fact that university hospitals have a lower success rate in treating patients. But this reason is not sufficient to reach the conclusion in question unless it can be shown that the patients treated in both types of hospitals suffered from similar types of maladies. For example, if university hospitals routinely treat patients suffering from rare diseases whereas other hospitals treat only those who suffer from known diseases and illnesses, the difference in success rates would not be indicative of the quality of care received. Finally, the author assumes that the number of doctors a hospital employs, its success rate in treating patients, the amount it pays its staff, and the profits it earns are all reliable indicators of the quality of care it delivers. No evidence is offered to support this assumption nor is it obvious that any of these factors is linked to the quality of care delivered to patients. Moreover, the fact that doctors in university hospitals divide their time among many tasks fails to demonstrate that they do a poorer job of treating patients than doctors at other kinds of hospitals. In fact, it is highly likely that they do a better job because they are more knowledgeable than other doctors due to their teaching and research. In conclusion, the author’s argument is unconvincing. To strengthen the argument the author would have to demonstrate that university hospitals in this region are representative of all university hospitals, as well as establishing a causal link between the various factors cited and the quality of care delivered to patients. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 4.williammba:那個(gè)Muscle Monthly 雜志上印健身運(yùn)動(dòng)員使用某健身器材照片，雜志很快售光，然后就有人建議新建的健身中心也應(yīng)該使用這種器材，從而提高居民的身體素質(zhì)。 考古： 原題：62. The following appeared in the letters-to-the-editor section of a local newspaper. “Muscle Monthly, a fitness magazine that regularly features pictures of bodybuilders using state-of-the-art exercise machines, frequently sells out, according to the owner of Skyview Newsstand. To help maximize fitness levels in our town’s residents, we should, therefore, equip our new community fitness center with such machines.” 思路： @ 志和健身中心的marketing strategy不同，不能簡(jiǎn)單apply雜志的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，況且人們買(mǎi)雜志可能不是因?yàn)槠鞑亩且驗(yàn)樯厦娴倪\(yùn)動(dòng)員 @ 者將健身視為強(qiáng)身健體的途徑，但其實(shí)慢跑、游泳等都可以強(qiáng)身健體，而且更便宜 @ 些健身器材的質(zhì)量未經(jīng)過(guò)檢驗(yàn)，值得懷疑 #如果雜志賣(mài)光得快不一定是因?yàn)檫@個(gè)器材好，很可能是價(jià)錢(qián)便宜，和其他的內(nèi)容。 #那些人很可能并不真正用這些機(jī)器，而只是擺出造型。 #如果是為了body-building的機(jī)器很可能不能fitness。比如，cardiovascular fitness。 *The bodybuilders may just pretend to be using the state-of-the-art exercise machines while, in fact, their excellent body conditions are due to the use of other types of equipment. And, they just do so for the advertisement purpose. *The circulation is just one of the indicators of the popularity of the magazine. What is more, I can find no direct relationship between the popularity of the magazine and the author’s suggestion that we should equip the community with the state-of-the-art excercise machine. *The machines for body building will not necessarily have the same effect on fitness. 范文： In this argument the author concludes that the new community fitness center should be equipped with the state-of-the-art exercise machines featured in Muscle Monthly magazine. In support of this recommendation two reasons are offered: (1) Muscle Monthly contains pictures of bodybuilders using such machines, and (2) Muscle Monthly is a popular magazine, as evidenced by the fact that it frequently sells out at the local newsstand. This argument is questionable on two counts. First, a major implication of the argument is that the bodybuilders pictured using the machines in Muscle Monthly magazine reached their state of fitness as a result of using these machines. The only evidence offered to support this contention, however, is the pictures in the magazine. It is possible that the bodybuilders pictured use different equipment for their workouts and are merely posing with the machines for advertising purposes. Second, the author assumes that machines that are suitable for bodybuilding will also be suitable to help maximize the fitness levels of the town’s residents. This assumption is highly questionable. Machines designed to increase muscle development are significantly different from those designed to increase cardiovascular fitness. Consequently, it is unlikely that the machines pictured in the magazine will be of much use to help maximize the fitness levels of the town’s residents. In conclusion, this argument is unconvincing. To strengthen the argument the author would have to show that the bodybuilders pictured using the exercise machines actually used the machines to reach their level of muscle development. Additionally, the author would have to show that the machines were suitable for increasing the fitness levels of the persons using them. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 5.

In color film processing, for example, the cost of a 3-by-5-inch print fell from 50 cents for five-day service in 1970 to 20 cents for one-day service in 1984. The same principle applies to the processing of food. And since Olympic Foods will soon celebrate its twenty-fifth birthday, we can expect that our long experience will enable us to minimize costs and thus maximize profits.” 思路： *false analogy: The food industry is not analogous to the color film industry. *causal oversimplification: Other factors that may contribute t to the cost decline of the printing cost should be considered and ruled out. *gratuitous assumption: The conclusion of the argument is based on a gratuitous assumption that the company can minimize cost and maximize profit because the company has been conducted for 25 years. # 錯(cuò)誤類(lèi)比：color film processing和processing of food不相同。problems of spoilage, contamination, and timely transportation都只影響food 不影響film. # 同時(shí)，忽略他因。是否是因?yàn)榻M織更有效率才使COST下降的?很可能是material necessary for the process下降了價(jià)錢(qián)。所以，兩者更不同。 # gratuitous assumption：二十五年不代表學(xué)到了很多。很可能什么都沒(méi)學(xué)到，或者技術(shù)已經(jīng)out of date. 范文： Citing facts drawn from the color-film processing industry that indicate a downward trend in the costs of film processing over a 24-year period, the author argues that Olympic Foods will likewise be able to minimize costs and thus maximize profits in the future. In support of this conclusion the author cites the general principle that “as organizations learn how to do things better, they become more efficient.” This principle, coupled with the fact that Olympic Foods has had 25 years of experience in the food processing industry leads to the author’s rosy prediction. This argument is unconvincing because it suffers from two critical flaws. First, the author’s forecast of minimal costs and maximum profits rests on the gratuitous assumption that Olympic Foods’ “l(fā)ong experience” has taught it how to do things better. There is, however, no guarantee that this is the case. Nor does the author cite any evidence to support this assumption. Just as likely, Olympic Foods has learned nothing from its 25 years in the food-processing business. Lacking this assumption, the expectation of increased efficiency is entirely unfounded. Second, it is highly doubtful that the facts drawn from the color-film processing industry are applicable to the food processing industry. Differences between the two industries clearly outweigh the similarities, thus making the analogy highly less than valid. For example, problems of spoilage, contamination, and timely transportation all affect the food industry but are virtually absent in the film-processing industry. Problems such as these might present insurmountable obstacles that prevent lowering food-processing costs in the future. As it stands the author’s argument is not compelling. To strengthen the conclusion that Olympic Foods will enjoy minimal costs and maximum profits in the future, the author would have to provide evidence that the company has learned how to do things better as a result of its 25 years of experience. Supporting examples drawn from industries more similar to the food-processing industry would further substantiate the author’s view. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 7.Jean0113:argument是考有個(gè)manager 因?yàn)橛斡境匦麻_(kāi)，帶來(lái)center使用的上升，決定新開(kāi)很多別的設(shè)施。。jj里有 考古： 原題：108.

Capital Idea should therefore invest in the Roxy Playhouse, the Slice-o’-Pizza, and the Divot Golf Club, three new businesses in the Irongate district. As a condition, we should require them to participate in a special program: Any customer who patronizes two of the businesses will receive a substantial discount at the third. By motivating customers to patronize all three, we will thus contribute to the profitability of each and maximize our return.” Capital Idea投資公司的商業(yè)計(jì)劃： 在ParkHill區(qū)的Thespian劇院，Pizzazz比薩，Niblick高爾夫俱樂(lè)部在過(guò)去2年都有業(yè)務(wù)增長(zhǎng)。因此Capital Idea應(yīng)該投資Poxy劇場(chǎng)，Slic-o比薩和Divot高爾夫俱樂(lè)部這3家新的Irongate區(qū)的企業(yè)。為使他們達(dá)到條件，我們應(yīng)該要求他們參加特殊的項(xiàng)目：任何顧客在其中兩家消費(fèi)將在第三家得到折扣。通過(guò)刺激顧客在所有3家店消費(fèi)，我們將增進(jìn)每一家的利潤(rùn)，從而使我們的回報(bào)大化。 思路： @ 過(guò)去的營(yíng)業(yè)額增長(zhǎng)不代表在另一個(gè)district開(kāi)三家店生意能夠好，區(qū)域之間可能存在差異，錯(cuò)誤的類(lèi)比 @ 推理不充分，這種折扣政策能保證三家店的每一家都盈利么?會(huì)不會(huì)某一家店承擔(dān)了過(guò)多的折扣? # The author commits a fallacy of false analogy. # Therefore the proposal of investment in the Irongate district is groundless. No investment should be made until other factors have been considered and the benefit-cost analysis has been made. # The program suggested by the author is reckless or even ridiculous. The possible result can be the opposite of the author’s imagination because the consumers have interest of only one or two of the three stores. * The business increases occurred in the past two years. No one can guarantee the future profit. * The three new companies are not necessarily analogous to those profitable ones. * The condition that is required is absurd. There is no causal relationship between the condition and the collective profit. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 9.wangeshang700：aa：找到了考古的原題： 原題：106.The following appeared as part of a business plan by the Capital Idea Investment firm. “Currently more and more books are becoming available in electronic form — either free of charge on the Internet or for a very low price per book on CD-ROM.* People who would not pay bookstore prices will now have access to whatever book they want from their home or work computers. Consequently, literary classics are likely to be read more widely than ever before: 72 percent of those responding to a recent online survey said they would read books in electronic form, and 81 percent said they believed that reading classic works was important.

The following appeared as part of a plan proposed by an executive of the Easy Credit Company to the president. “The Easy Credit Company would gain an advantage over competing credit card services if we were to donate a portion of the proceeds from the use of our cards to a well-known environmental organization in exchange for the use of its symbol or logo on our card. Since a recent poll shows that a large percentage of the public is concerned about environmental issues, this policy would attract new customers, increase use among existing customers, and enable us to charge interest rates that are higher than the lowest ones available.” 范文：In this argument the author concludes that the Easy Credit Company would gain several advantages over its competitors by donating a portion of its profits to a well-known environmental organization in exchange for the use of the organization’s logo on their credit card. The author reaches this conclusion on the basis of a recent poll that shows widespread public concern about environmental issues. Among the advantages of this policy, the author foresees an increase in credit card use by existing customers, the ability to charge higher interest rates, and the ability to attract new customers. While the author’s argument has some merit, it suffers from two critical problems. To begin with, the author assumes that the environmental organization whose logo is sought is concerned with the same environmental issues about which the poll shows widespread concern. However, the author provides no evidence that this is the case. It is possible that very few credit-card users are concerned about the issues that are the organization’s areas of concern; if so, then it is unlikely that the organization’s logo would attract much business for the Easy Credit Company. Next, the author assumes that the public’s concern about environmental issues will result in its taking steps to do something about the problem—in this case, to use the Easy Credit Company credit card. This assumption is unsupported and runs contrary to experience. Also, it is more reasonable to assume that people who are concerned about a particular cause will choose a more direct means of expressing their concern. In conclusion, the author’s argument is unconvincing as it stands. To strengthen the argument, the author must show a positive link between the environmental issues about which the public has expressed concern and the issues with which this particular environmental organization is concerned. In addition, the author must provide evidence to support the assumption that concern about a problem will cause people to do something about the problem. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 11.

Since the mall has opened, a number of local businesses have closed, and the downtown area suffers from an acute parking shortage, and arrests for crime and vagrancy have increased in the nearby Oak City Park. Elm City should pay attention to the example of the Oak City mall and deny the application to build a shopping mall in Elm City.” 思路： # 作者所給出的所有問(wèn)題和商場(chǎng)的建設(shè)都是時(shí)間上的前后關(guān)系而沒(méi)有給出證據(jù)顯示他們的因果關(guān)系 # 作者只給出了不好的結(jié)果而沒(méi)有給出好的影響很可能權(quán)衡利弊之后被選擇的是要開(kāi)這個(gè)商場(chǎng) # 這個(gè)商場(chǎng)的建立不應(yīng)該也不能由此就否定以后所有的商場(chǎng)的建立 * To begin with, the author fails to establish the causal relationship between the shopping mall’s opening and the closing of local businesses. * Moreover, the author’s conclusion is also based on the assumption that the shopping mall has caused the increase in crime and vagrancy. * Finally, even if the shopping mall did cause the closing of local business and the increasing crime and vagrancy in Oak City, the author’s prediction that Elm City will suffer from the same fate as Oak City is still open to doubt. 范文： (此文根據(jù)老題寫(xiě)作)In this editorial the author rebukes Oak City for allowing the construction of a new downtown shopping mall. Citing a number of problems that have occurred since the building of the mail, the author concludes that the residents of Oak City have not benefited from the mail and that Oak City exercised poor judgment in allowing the mail to be built. Among the problems cited by the author are the closure of local businesses, lack of parking in the downtown area, and increased trash and litter in a city park near the mall. Moreover, the author argues that profits derived from sales are not benefiting Oak City because the owner of the mall lives in another city. The author’s argument is problematic in several respects. In the first place, the author assumes that addition of the new mall is the cause of the various problems cited. The only evidence offered to support this claim is that the construction of the mall occurred before these problems manifested themselves. However, this evidence is insufficient to establish the claim in question. A chronological relationship is only one of the indicators of a causal relationship between two events. In the second place, the author has focused only on negative effects the mall has had on the city. A more detailed analysis of the situation might reveal that the positive benefits for the city far outweigh the problems on which the author focuses. For example, new jobs might have been created for the residents of Oak City, and tax revenues might have been increased for the city. Lacking a more comprehensive analysis of the impact of the mail on Oak City, it is presumptuous on the part of the author to conclude that Oak City’s decision to allow the mall to be built was incorrect. In conclusion, the author’s argument is unconvincing. To strengthen the argument the author would have to demonstrate that the construction of the mall caused the various problems mentioned. The author would also have to show that the negative effects of the project outweighed the positive effects. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 12. v1.xalyan:Two years ago, George 開(kāi)了一家restaurant，這家餐廳賣(mài)的是sandwishes(這個(gè)不是重點(diǎn))，這家餐廳的地理位置比較好，附近有很多學(xué)校，所以會(huì)有很多的學(xué)生經(jīng) 常來(lái)光顧，所以這家餐廳后轉(zhuǎn)了很多錢(qián)。然后George打算在附近的towns and cities再open three new restaurants，并且plan to promote some employees in the old one to be managers at the three new restaurants. 后he expects the profits he will gain will triple.

The following appeared as part of a recommendation from the business manager of a department store. “Local clothing stores reported that their profits decreased, on average, for the three-month period between August 1 and October 31. Stores that sell products for the home reported that, on average, their profits increased during this same period. Clearly, consumers are choosing to buy products for their homes instead of clothing. To take advantage of this trend, we should reduce the size of our clothing departments and enlarge our home furnishings and household products departments.” 思路： * 衣帽部利潤(rùn)↓和家具部利潤(rùn)↑同時(shí)發(fā)生但不一定有必然聯(lián)系 * 三個(gè)月的時(shí)間太短不能用來(lái)得出結(jié)論 * 過(guò)去的趨勢(shì)不一定能保證未來(lái)走向 * 樣本不具有代表性 # A period of three month is too short to draw a general conclusion of the overall trend. # The past three months’ trend does not guarantee the same in the future. # Whether the reports from the local clothing stores and stores that sell products for the home are reliable or not are still open to doubt, thus making the author’s suggestion groundless. 范文： Based upon sales reports over a three-month period that indicate an increase in profits for stores that sell products for the home and a decrease in profits for clothing stores, the business manager of a department store concludes that consumers are choosing to purchase home furnishings rather than clothing. On the basis of this conclusion, the manager recommends a reduction in the size of the clothing department and an increase in the size of the home-furnishings department. This recommendation is problematic in two critical respects. In the first place, the author’s conclusion that consumers are choosing to buy products for their homes instead of clothing is based upon too small a sample. Data gathered from a three-month period is insufficient to establish the conclusion drawn from it. It is quite possible that the three-month period chosen is idiosyncratic and not representative of entire year’s sales. If so, reducing the size of the clothing departments and enlarging the home-furnishings departments may be a costly mistake. In the second place, the data collected during the three month period may be biased. The fact that the data reflects sales in local stores is cause for concern. It is possible that the sales trend in a particular location is not representative of sales in other regions. For example, sales of clothing in Florida during the winter months are likely to be quite different from sales of clothing in Alaska during the same period. In conclusion, this argument is not persuasive as it stands. A more convincing argument must provide additional sales data, collected at different periods of the year and at different locations, that substantiates the trend in question. 以上就是2012年1月1日更新的GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng)AA部分，考生可以適當(dāng)借鑒，并通過(guò)練習(xí)來(lái)掌握GMAT作文的解題規(guī)律，從而順利通過(guò)GMAT考試。 GMAT考試已于12月27日更換題庫(kù)，以下是2011年12月的GMAT作文AA部分機(jī)經(jīng)更新，更新日期從11年12月27日起至12年1月1日，目前共39題。 14.onlylee0302放一只AA新狗狗。The employers have rights to prohibit the unhealthy behaviors of employees 不管是在工作時(shí)間還是其他時(shí)間。 15. v1.irisshao:說(shuō)Provincia Airline這家航空公司的一個(gè)分析師給他們的CEO建議說(shuō)：“去年的燃料油價(jià)格上漲了不少，而去年我們也增加了兩部新的flights。去年我們公司 的盈利降低了不少。盈利降低應(yīng)該不是因?yàn)橛蛢r(jià)上漲，因?yàn)槠渌娇展疽餐瑯用媾R油價(jià)上漲，但他們中有一些也盈利上升了。所以問(wèn)題一定出在新增加的那兩架 flights身上，建議今年把它們?nèi)咳∠��！? v2. ashley0707: 一家叫Provincia的航空公司 今年油價(jià)上漲 導(dǎo)致飛機(jī)運(yùn)營(yíng)成本上漲，這家P公司又增加了航線 發(fā)現(xiàn)利潤(rùn)降低而又發(fā)現(xiàn)同行業(yè)的公司并沒(méi)有因?yàn)橛蛢r(jià)上漲而導(dǎo)致利潤(rùn)下跌，P公司認(rèn)為是新增的航線才導(dǎo)致的利潤(rùn)下跌 所以要停止新航線來(lái)挽回利潤(rùn)損失 v3. kiki070300123一個(gè)p飛機(jī)公司，利潤(rùn)降低20%，究其原因有兩個(gè)，一個(gè)是石油價(jià)格上漲，而是新增加5條航線。然而，analyst認(rèn)為石油不能作為主要原因，因?yàn)橛行┖骄�也面臨石油上漲但是利潤(rùn)也上漲了，所以應(yīng)該eliminate new flights的使用 v4. ashley0707 : 一家叫Provincia的航空公司 今年油價(jià)上漲 導(dǎo)致飛機(jī)運(yùn)營(yíng)成本上漲，這家P公司又增加了航線 發(fā)現(xiàn)利潤(rùn)降低而又發(fā)現(xiàn)同行業(yè)的公司并沒(méi)有因?yàn)橛蛢r(jià)上漲而導(dǎo)致利潤(rùn)下跌 P公司認(rèn)為是新增的航線才導(dǎo)致的利潤(rùn)下跌 所以要停止新航線來(lái)挽回利潤(rùn)損失 考古： V1: 某航空公司發(fā)現(xiàn)，上個(gè)季profits減少了20%。寫(xiě)報(bào)告的人認(rèn)為是燃油漲價(jià)造成的。但是他又提到，別的航空公司也面臨燃油貴的問(wèn)題，但仍然有公司是improve profits.所以他后的結(jié)論就是，因?yàn)槲覀児驹黾恿诵碌膄light, 所以燃油cost更多。為了improve profit，公司應(yīng)該eliminate the new flights we added the ealier year.
